I WANT TO SIT AND THINK OF THE(THAT?) UNUSUAL DREAM ABOUT YOU.


P.S sounds like a plan! /(^o^)/

I wasn't sure how to decode this sentence since there was no start codon to tell me where to begin. I just came up with a nonsense sentence.

Maria, how did you know where to begin? It would have been good to let Aryana know she was missing the start codon.

Aryana, could you give us a walk through on how it should have been decoded? Where did the sentence start?

Here is my decode, just for reference. I had to start at the beginning because there was no indicator to start elsewhere:

DNA: GAGTCAAGGGAACGGTAGTGTGATAACCCTGGTTAGCCATATCCATG
RNA codons: CUC AGU UCC CUG CCA UCA CAC UAU UGG GAC CAA UCG GUA UAG
Are ape into were sit and think of the unusual dream about you (stop)

Did you two work together on this homework? Not a problem, but you made nearly identical mistakes and seemed to have no problem decoding, when you should have had problems. You may want to try decoding other student codes, just for practice (don't post comments) to make sure you understand how this works properly.
